Any of you see "Magnificience" run today?

Saw the race replay. She looked good, but short fields always make winners look better than they really are.

But they are off to a great start with her name. Imagine that one running in a $5,000 claimer?

Short field or not I think it was a tremendous performance..

Solis said after the race that she could be one of the best fillies of all time..

I think we have a superstar here for sure..

Her maiden win was more impressive.That was a freaky kind of effort. I need to see more before I can label her a superstar. They said the same thing about Belany Road after his Wood victory a few years ago.He turned out to be a one race wonder.
If Magnificience can go a distance and prove her class in a stretch battle,then I'll be convinced.

Forgot all about him. Never did anything after that.

Wood and Santa Anita Derby this Saturday and Blue Grass and Arkansas Derby next Saturday.

Its an allowance race to get her back into the races again. This thread is old. I bumped it up from the past. Race goes 2:20 pm Pacific at Hollywood.

The #1 Renegade Ruby looks good.

I had this horse

Had WPS for $25 across the board, didn't pay that great, but winner is a winner

I put a chunk of change on her nose and feel very fortunate to cash. She was more impressive in her first two races. The fact that the runner up was from the same trainer saved my bet. Both fillies never saw the whip in the stretch. Magnificience was expected to win this race.
TVG has great coverage on Sunday's and The jockey of the second place mare was miked up. Mike Smith is caught telling winning jockey David Flores "Its a good thing for you I didn't go to my left hand stick. You're filly run great, but well you know." Smith is considered one of the strongest left hand stick riders in the game.
Its not a wise thing to bet heavy chalk as it is a long term losing prop. I'm in a slump and needed a winning week to break the cycle. This race got me there yet I'm not eager to play her back in her next race.
